Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Waterford, CT, dealing with basement water seepage turned to us at Connecticut Basement Systems for a solution. One of our Sales Consultant Matt Kraus evaluated the situation and designed a plan.

Then one of our foreman Luis Alas and his team implemented the plan by installing the WaterGuard drainage system around the basement’s perimeter to direct water to the sump liner. They also installed the SuperSump Plus sump pump system, which includes a primary pump, a secondary pump for high volumes, and a battery backup capable of pumping 2,220 gallons per hour. Finally, they set up the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to manage moisture with minimal maintenance.

These enhancements ensure the basement stays dry, providing the homeowner with peace of mind.

A homeowner in Norwich had a below-grade garage/basement that was getting water in it. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to find a solution to this problem. We sent our Sales Consultant, Stephen Singley, to the home to estimate the issues and propose a permanent waterproofing solution. 

Then it would soon be time for one of our Foremen, Garfield Sanderson, and his crew to work on the installation. They installed our WaterGuard drainage system below the floor, around the entire perimeter to collect water coming in from the walls and below the floor. Then they installed our TripleSafe sump pump to take the water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. Our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to eliminate moisture and prevent mold growth. Now this basement/garage will stay dry all the time!

The B. Family had a crack in their basement that was a real pain. Every time it rained, water would come into the basement, and anytime it snowed, the snow would eventually melt and water would come in. The homeowners called the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems to make sure the issues was taken care of. We came in and diagnosed the problem and recommended our FlexiSpan® crack repair system. 

The FlexiSpan® is unlike hydraulic cements and some epoxies: the special polyurethane polymer sealant used for FlexiSpan® will never dry out or re-crack even given the natural movement of the foundation wall over long periods of time. The homeowners can now rest assured that the basement will not take on water from that crack.

This New London basement had reoccurring water issues that were making the area unusable. The constant water would leave a musty odor and the clean-up process was beyond frustrating for the homeowner. She wanted a solution to solve the constant water problem and to get rid of the distressing smell. The homeowner decided to call Connecticut Basement Systems for a free home estimate. 

The solution for this basement was to install a WaterGuard System. This system is installed internally around the perimeter of the walls and then is concealed with cement. (You can see the wet cement in the after photo.) The WaterGuard System will collect water internally and channel it out to the sump pump. The sump pump will then take the water and disperse it through the discharge line. A CleanSpace liner is beneficial for this basement because it acts as a moisture barrier which will prevent any water from seeping through the walls. (You can see the CleanSpace Liner on the walls in the after photo)

Once the installation was finished, the basement was waterproofed and the musty odor was eliminated. This is exactly what the homeowner wanted and could not be happier with the results.

A homeowner in New London, CT was getting water in their basement and was looking to get a full perimeter system. After reaching out to us at Connecticut Basement Systems, we sent out one of our Sales Consultants, Josh Kroop, to the home to check out the issues and propose a solution with our waterproofing systems. 

Soon after, it would be time for one of our Foremen, Moises Chantes, and his crew to install this job. The components of this waterproofing job included our WaterGuard drainage system to collect water coming in from the walls and floors. Then they installed our SuperSump Plus sump pump to pump out the collected water safely from the home. With these systems, the basement will stay dry, giving the homeowner peace of mind.
